9 Upcoming 2016 TV Shows That Are Already Doomed To Fail

These shows haven't got a chance.

With so much unique television being created by innumerable television networks, it's only natural that certain shows won't last long. These days, we're in something of a Golden Age of television writing, with amazing shows airing or just having aired, like Breaking Bad, Mad Men and the first season of True Detective. But those shows are the cream of the crop. 2015 was filled with disappointing television debuts like Steve Coogan's Happyish, Craig Robinson's Mr Robinson and ABC's Office-esque The Muppets. With a little bit of analysis and foresight, however, the negative reaction to these shows probably could have been predicted, and the same goes for 2016. Like every year, 2016 is set to give viewers a whole host of new televisual choices. While some of these things will likely be brilliant (there's been a very positive reaction to the first episode of 2016's The X-Files reboot) there are certain new shows that won't fare quite as well. From yet another Stephen King adaptation to Chris Evans' impossible task of saving Top Gear, here are the upcoming 2016 TV shows that are already doomed to fail.
